I am using WSUS Offline Update in an environment where the machine running the Update Generator is a development domain, which connects to the Internet via a corporate network domain. There is no trust relationship between the two, which means that authentication with the corporate proxy servers using a corporate domain ID is required.
This is possible using the current "Proxy..." button, but the setting remains there once set, and worse... it is in clear text. We have to be very careful to remember to go into the tool and delete the proxy password from the set up once the generator has finished its work.
I have a suggestion:
Can the proxy set up be changed so that should authentication be required, a one-time authentication dialogue is displayed by the Update Generator, which is used for the session, and completely forgotten when the application is exited?
